Sara Is Dumb 02:22
lyrics
buy track
Sara, how could you be so dumb? Sara, how could you be so dumb? I thought you were smarter than that I thought you knew A little bit brighter than that And that you grew Like a day does Ancient and new Like a song does, I'll sing for you Sara, HOW COULD YOU BE SO DUMB?!?!?! Sara?!? I know the past that it calls you And I know you'll pick up Although this moment it loves you You say give up Like a fool does Horny and blind Like this pain does I really don't mind I reaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllly don't mind.

Distracted People 04:25
lyrics
buy track
You keep talking like someone's watching but We're alone Something wanders Why so somber? What's on your mind? All of the time Like you don't have the time Whats on your mind? Daydreamer Split-screener In her head she's sitting in a theatre She's a mystic A creator She's a feeder Make you a believer What's on your mind? All of the time Like you don't have the time What's on your mind?

Cure 03:06

On a desert breast you tried your best you did all that a boy could do oh to find a cure your still unsure you still dont know what this life is for when i wear your dress i look my best it covers up all my lonliness love like something new its all you do wish i could be more, something more like you love, and just for fun and for no one they say, "what do you mean my son?"

3 songs that meant a lot to me at a certain point of time. These songs began with an inspiring time in my home in Utah, and was finished in the Gold Coast, Australia. Many thanks and all my love for listening. Made by Jake.

Thank you to friends and family who have shown me support and helped me to believe in myself, it's very very important. Thank you Sara and The Scovilles for the inspiration and space to do my thang. Thank you Mos Desert Clubhouse, where the songs were finished. Thank you Satan for being such a persistent enemy and counterpoint, you've helped me learn a lot about myself. You're a good guy deep down, hang in there.
